CREATION AND THE BRAIN.
Creation activates the pre-frontal cortex, the most flexible and adaptive part of the brain. The pre-frontal cortex is responsible for focused attention, planning, and creating a vision of the future. Our focus shapes our identity and reality. The more we practice intentional focus, the more we can build our own realities in our daily lives. Creative activities such as art can help creative neural networks that support emotional regulation, problem solving, and enhanced neuroplasticity.
